Question I need answered please !

| Question:
You have ten computers in your organization that are not connected to the internet. The
company breaks down and purchases a 56K modem to connect to the Internet. You
implement Internet connectivity sharing. Now you can't see any of the other computers on your network. What do you do?
a. Use IPCONFIG to release and to renew.
b. Disable the shared connection
What is the author asking for in this question ? Does the author want you to return the network connection to as it was before (without internet access) OR does he want all the computers to connect to the internet and also have a network connection ?
I have my test on Thursday 19th, so I'll probably be asking more questions till then !! lol
ThAnKs,

| Loppholes you need to ask yourself to answer your question...
- You didn't say if the computers were connected to the office network or not, you just said they were in the office.
- Is networking set up on the other computers.. DHCP, DNS
- Finally once it is enabled all systems must be rebooted to initialize the connections.
Slap it up, Fip it and break it down!
Hope that helps... Good Luck  | |

| Hi again, another 2 questions for you to try get your head around !.....
Liz has installed Windows 2000 on a computer in her company but is uncertain whether she has set the partitions and disks up correctly. She is wondering what modifications she will be able to make later to her system without the loss of any data. Which of the following can she do to a Windows 2000 system without experiencing data loss? (Choose all that apply).
A. Convert FAT to FAT32 by running "convert x: /fs:fat32" where x is the letter of the drive she wishes to
convert.
B. Convert FAT to NTFS by running"convert x: /fs:ntfs" where x is the letter of the drive she wishes to convert.
C. Convert FAT32to NTFS by running"convert x: /fs:ntfs" where x is the letter of the drive she wishes to
convert.
D. Convert NTFS to FAT by running "format x: /fs:fat" where x is the letter of the drive she wishes to convert.
E. Upgrade a disk from a basic disk to a dynamic disk using the Disk Management utility.
F. Revert a disk from a dynamic disk to a basic disk using the Disk Management utility
My guess is : B,C and E
I did'nt choose F, even though it is possable to convert dynamic back to basic, but the question asks "Which of the following can she do to a Win2k system without experiencing data loss. In order to convert Dynamic to basic, you have to delete all volumes on the disk, hence loss of data !
Can someone confirm this for me !
Also,
Your system contains two physical disks that have been converted to dynamic disks.
*The first physical disk (Disk 0) contains the operating system files and is formatted with the NTFS file system. This drive has approximately 750 MB of unallocated space.
*The second physical disk (Disk 1) contains no volumes and is 4 GB in size.
Which of the following are things that you CAN NOT do with these dynamic disks? (Choose all that apply.)
A. Revert Disk 1 to a basic disk
B. Create a stripe set across the two disks
C. Create a stripe set with parity across the two disks
D. Format Disk 1 with the FAT32 file system
My guess is: B,C and D (not sure but )
If Disk 1 has no Volumes, I doubt that anything can be done to it until a Volume has been created on it ? | |

F. Revert a disk from a dynamic disk to a basic disk using the Disk Management utility
My guess is : B,C and E
A is incorrect, because the convert command doesn't change Fat to Fat32. It will change Fat(32) to NTFS.
B is correct
C is correct
D is incorrect because you cant use the convert command to change from NTFS to Fat(32)
E is correct
F is incorrect because she would loose data when reverting back to basic disks.

spot on.

Well, your a little off here. Maybe this will help?
A is possible. Since Disk 1 contains no data, you can revert back to basic without any problems.
B is possible because you have two disks. Both of these disks contain free space, and are dynamic disks.
C is NOT possible. Raid 5 (stripe set with parity) requires a minimum of 3 disks.
D is possible. You can format a disk with Fat32. Even a dynamic disk.
To answer the question, the only solution that is NOT POSSILBE would be answer C. | |

Hi joe, thanks for getting back to me !
Just a query, With answer B) Create a stripe set across the two disks, the question asked about the possablity of RAID 0 across the 2 disks, I thought it was impossable because DISK1 had no volumes on it. I thought you needed volumes in order to do anything with the dynamic disk 1 ? | |
| Joe Blacke 2001-07-15, 11:47 am |
| In disk manager, when you create a stripe set (raid 0), you ARE creating a volume.
Right click an area of free space, choose create volume, and select a striped volume from within the wizard. Assign a letter to the new volume.
To create a striped volume, you need: two or more disks that are dynamic. Enough free space on each of the disks for the size of the volume you are creating. | |

| ah right, I understand now !
thanks  | |

a. Use IPCONFIG to release and to renew.
b. Disable the shared connection
The key point here is that when you enable Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) your machine becomes a DHCP server (and DNS proxy too)and also gets it's LAN interface IP address changed to 192.168.0.1. Most likely your network ran on APIPA (196.254.x.x) before that. With your machine on a different subnet from the rest you cannot communicate. The other machines has to be DHCP clients for ICS to work. Most likely they allready are, but need to initiate the DHCP configuration sequence. The easiest way to do that without recycling the computers is to release and renew with IPCONFIG. After doing that they should again be able to communicate as well as surf on the Internet.
Disabling the shared connection is for loosers that don't know how to get this to work or smart people that do not connect to the Internet without properly installing a firewall first 
Good luck on thursday!
